Public failures and fumbles are painful to say the least.  I've recently had a handful of clients come to me feeling crushed after making a mistake, fumbling, or failing publicly. The most prominent outcome in all of their stories? SHAME. Their instinctual behavior to manage the shame? Hide, deny, or deflect. Fun fact, people don't actually trust leaders who never admit to making mistakes. Mistakes are a demonstration of humanity, authenticity, and vulnerability. We trust people who we see as human, fallible, and REAL. We trust people who aren't afraid to take accountability. We trust people who don't shy away from saying sorry. At the end of the day, our public mistakes don't have to be the end of our credibility. In fact, they can become a powerful part of the evolution of our growth and credibility as a leader. In this episode, I'm digging into how public fumbles can actually make you a better leader, and I'll walk you through the four steps (borrowed from restorative justice practices) to move through mistakes in a way that builds, rather than breaks, your credibility: Take responsibility for your part in the mess. Apologize for any harm done. Share and demonstrate what you've learned. Commit to the steps you'll take to do better next time. By taking these steps, you are modeling humility, integrity, strength, grace, and a healthy sense of ego. When you model these things, people trust you MORE. People see you as more credible and authentic. People feel more connected to you. You become the kind of leader people remember and emulate.  I'll also talk about how to let go of the shame of failure as an essential step for moving forward. The reality is, being a great leader is far more about being real than being perfect. Processing the shame is part of being real and giving yourself the grace to be imperfect. If you've ever found yourself in the spotlight for the wrong reasons—or feared what might happen if you do—this conversation will give you a roadmap for navigating those moments with integrity, humility, and strength.

Florida Gators head coach Billy Napier laid an egg versus USF, as the Gators lost to the Bulls 18-16 at home. Horrible timeout use and questionable decisions throughout the game are the beginning of why I believe he's getting fired. I also explain why it's shaky as to exactly when Napier will be let go.I have four more college football head coaches to discuss, all of whom did nothing to help themselves on Saturday, Sep. 6. @fbscout_florida On X @LO_ThePortal TikTok @lockedontheportalSupport us by supporting our sponsors!Rugiet150,000 men have made the switch →https://Rugiet.com/LOCKEDONCOLLEGE Use code LOCKEDONNFL to get 15% off your order!DripDropRight now, DripDrop is offering Locked On listeners 20% off your first order.

Howard Bloom is an author, scientist, and former music industry publicist, who argues that entropy has been disastrously misapplied as a universal law across physics, cosmology, biology, information theory, and culture. In this episode we explore how a concept that was initially formulated in context of steam engines was used to create a story of universe doomed from the start, and explore Bloom's radical alternative: that the universe — from atoms to galaxies, evolution to economics, music to technology — is not destined for collapse, but driven toward order, complexity, creativity, and flamboyant progress.PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showOUR HOMEBREWED MUSICCheck out our band's new album:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-hereVinyl pre-orders available now: https://buy.stripe.com/14A5kC3Od5d21Ms7zPdEs0900:00 Go!

It has become a de facto standard in plants and machines for interconnecting systems and in fact individual devices. So, what happens when it fails? What would make it fail? In this episode of Control Intelligence, written by contributing editor Jeremy Pollard, editor in chief Mike Bacidore network-troubleshoots dos and don'ts.

Genesis: The Story of Apollo 8, the First Manned Flight to Another World Author: Bob Zimmerman Segment 4: NASA's Daring Gamble: Responding to Soviet Failures NASA's decision to send Apollo 8 on a circumlunar mission was a bold, aggressive move spurred by the Soviet Zondprogram. While the lunar module was behind schedule, George Low, manager of the Apollo program, proposed sending Apollo 8 to the moon after observing Soviet progress and knowing a simple Earth orbit repetition was a waste. The Soviets experienced failures with Zond 4 (self-destructed), Zond 5 (ballistic re-entry), and Zond 6 (lost atmosphere), which canceled their manned lunar mission. Low and Sam Phillips made the decision, informing a furious but ultimately supportive James Webb, NASA's head. This "gamble" was driven by the desire to prove American capabilities in the space race. 1957 SPUTNIK

Intel's recent agreement with the U.S. government includes a controversial clause that allows the federal government to acquire an additional 5% stake in the company if it loses control of its foundry business. This unusual provision has raised concerns among stakeholders, including investors and employees, as it signifies a level of government intervention in corporate governance that is not typically seen in the U.S. The deal is still being finalized, and the implications for Intel's operations and the broader tech industry remain to be seen.A recent report highlights that Gen Z, despite being digital natives, exhibits poorer cybersecurity practices compared to baby boomers. Only 30% of Gen Z regularly change their passwords, and a mere 36% use antivirus software. This generation's trust in technology is evident, with 18% comfortable allowing AI to act on their behalf. However, the report also notes that 91% of Gen Z believes data security training should be a workplace priority, indicating a desire for improvement in their cybersecurity habits.The threat landscape is evolving, with the emergence of AI-powered ransomware, specifically a strain named PromptLock, which is currently under development. This ransomware utilizes AI to generate scripts for data exfiltration and encryption in real time, posing significant challenges for cybersecurity defenses. Additionally, the ransomware gang Storm-0501 has shifted its focus to cloud data, exploiting accounts without multi-factor authentication to exfiltrate sensitive information and demand ransoms through platforms like Microsoft Teams.The podcast also discusses the cooling hype surrounding AI technologies, particularly following the underwhelming launch of GPT-5. Only 5% of companies have successfully converted AI into revenue, leading to a market correction in the tech sector. As managed service providers increasingly adopt AI tools, questions arise about the long-term implications for workforce development and the potential risks associated with over-investing in emerging technologies. The conversation emphasizes the need for MSPs to focus on governance, compliance, and responsible use of AI while navigating the evolving landscape of cybersecurity and technology. Four things to know today 00:00 Gen Z Lags Boomers in Basic Cybersecurity Habits, GWI Report Finds05:07 Auvik Introduces Smart Alert Suppression to Cut False Alarms in IT Management06:26 White House Confirms Intel Agreement Still in Flux as Commerce Finalizes Terms07:44 AI's Growing Pains—Revenue Gaps, Job Impacts, and MSP Opportunities Collide  This is the Business of Tech.     Supported by:  https://scalepad.com/dave/ https://cometbackup.com/?utm_source=mspradio&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=sponsorship All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

Friday 9/5/25

Happy Friday, everyone! Hopefully you got some time to rest and recharge over the Labor Day weekend. After a much needed break, I'm back with a packed lineup of four big updates I feel are worth you attention. First up, MIT dropped a stat that “95% of AI pilots fail.” While the headlines are misleading, the real story raises deeper questions about how companies are approaching AI. Then, I break down some major shifts in the model race, including DeepSeek 3.1 and Liquid AI's completely new architecture. Finally, we'll talk about Google Mango and why it could be one of the most important breakthroughs for connecting the dots across complex systems.With that, let's get into it.⸻What MIT Really Found in Its AI ReportMIT's Media Lab released a report claiming 95% of AI pilots fail, and as you can imagine, the number spread like wildfire. But when you dig deeper, the reality is not just about the tech. Underneath the surface, there's a lot of insights on the humans leading and managing the projects. Interestingly, general-purpose LLM pilots succeed at a much higher clip, while specialized use cases fail when leaders skip the basics. But that's not it. I unpack what the data really says, why companies are at risk even if they pick the right tech, and shine a light on what every individual should take away from it.⸻The Model Landscape Is Shifting FastThe hype around GPT-5 crashed faster than the Hindenburg, especially since hot on the heels of it DeepSeek 3.1 hit the scene with open-source power, local install options, and prices that undercut the competition by an insane order of magnitude. Meanwhile, Liquid AI is rethinking AI architecture entirely, creating models that can run efficiently on mobile devices without draining resources. I break down what these shifts mean for businesses, why cost and accessibility matter, and how leaders should think about the expanding AI ecosystem.⸻Google Mango: A Breakthrough in ComplexityGoogle's has a new, also not so new, programming language, Mango, which promises to unify access across fragmented databases. Think of it as a universal interpreter that can make sense of siloed systems as if they were one. For organizations, this has the potential to change the game by helping both people and AI work more effectively across complexity. However, despite what some headlines say, it's not the end of human work. I share why context still matters, what risks leaders need to watch for, and how to avoid overhyping this development.⸻A Positive Use Case: Sales Ops TransformationTo close things out, I made some time to share how a failed AI initiative in sales operations was turned around by focusing on context, people, and process. Instead of falling into the 95%, the team got real efficiency gains once the basics were in place. It's proof that specialized AI can succeed when done right.⸻If this episode was helpful, would you share it with someone? Leave a rating, drop a comment with your thoughts, and follow for future updates that help you lead with clarity in the AI age. And, if you'd take me out for a coffee to say thanks, you can do that here: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/christopherlind—Show Notes:In this Weekly Update, Christopher Lind breaks down MIT's claim that 95% of AI pilots fail, highlights the major shifts happening in the model landscape with DeepSeek and Liquid AI, and explains why Google Mango could be one of the most important tools for managing complexity in the enterprise. He also shares a real-world example of a sales ops project that proves specialized AI can succeed with the right approach.Timestamps:00:00 – Introduction and Welcome01:28 – Overview of Today's Topics03:05 – MIT's Report on AI Pilot Failures23:39 – The New Model Landscape: DeepSeek and Liquid AI40:14 – Google Mango and Why It Matters47:48 – Positive AI Use Case in Sales Ops53:25 – Final Thoughts#AItransformation #FutureOfWork #DigitalLeadership #AIrisks #HumanCenteredAI

“After the Lord had spoken these words to Job, the Lord said to Eliphaz the Temanite: “My anger burns against you and against your two friends, for you have not spoken of me what is right, as my servant Job has. Now therefore take seven bulls and seven rams and go to my servant Job and offer up a burnt offering for yourselves. And my servant Job shall pray for you, for I will accept his prayer not to deal with you according to your folly. For you have not spoken of me what is right, as my servant Job has.” So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went and did what the Lord had told them, and the Lord accepted Job's prayer.” - Job‬ ‭42‬:‭7‬-‭9‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Banks face some of the highest stakes when it comes to IT reliability. Even small disruptions can ripple into regulatory exposure, reputational harm, and major financial losses. Yet many financial institutions still rely on reactive monitoring systems that chase alerts without addressing the root causes of outages.

'We get very angry when rain disrupts our lives and brings our cities to a halt, but by the time the elections come around, we have forgotten how angry we were. Rarely, if ever, do these urban failures or the corruption and political ineptitude that lead to them swing an election. We vote instead for caste, for religion or for some conception of national interest. Governance simply does not matter. Politicians know this. So even as we rage and vent as we have been doing over the last few weeks, they chuckle to themselves and go back to counting their money. In the old days, they would at least offer token apologies. Now they don't even bother to do that. They just announce that schools will close for two days or urge us to work from home. And we let them get away with it. So let's not blame politicians alone. Let's ask ourselves why we don't demand more accountability from them.' says Author & ThePrint Columnist Vir Sanghvi.

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITWhat's happening beneath the surface of today's headlines? From unexpected privacy invasions to dormant sports dynasties and disturbing religious threats, this episode peels back layers on stories that deserve more attention than they're getting.We dive into the unsettling case of a Massachusetts homeowner who discovered her insurance company was conducting drone surveillance of her property without consent. The company used aerial footage to demand tree limb removal under threat of policy cancellation after a decade-long relationship. This raises profound questions about how technology is redrawing privacy boundaries in America. Would you be comfortable with your insurer flying drones over your home? Many listeners have expressed outrage at this practice, while others wonder about its legality.The conversation shifts to Troy Aikman's candid assessment of Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboys' 30-year Super Bowl drought. The Hall of Fame quarterback questions whether generating headlines and drama has superseded on-field success for America's most valuable sports franchise. With just four playoff victories in three decades and the recent trading of star player Micah Parsons, Cowboys fans are left wondering if championship aspirations remain the priority.Most disturbing is our examination of an armed threat against a California Catholic monastery. An Alabama man drove across the country with brass knuckles, knives, high-capacity magazines, and body armor after making threats against St. Michael's Abbey. This incident follows other attacks on religious institutions nationwide, highlighting a dangerous pattern targeting faith communities.Join the conversation by sharing your thoughts on these overlooked stories.

The Christian faith begins the moment a person believes in Jesus Christ as Savior, trusting Him alone for the free gift of eternal life (John 3:16; Acts 16:31; Eph 2:8-9). At that instant, God forgives sins, declares the believer righteous (Rom 3:28; 5:1), and grants eternal security (John 10:28). This starting point is not achieved by works, reform, or religious ritual, but by faith alone in Christ alone. The Christian life then continues by walking with God daily through faith, learning and applying His Word, and living in dependence on the Holy Spirit (2 Cor 5:7; Gal 5:16; 2 Tim 3:16-17). Growth in grace is a lifelong process as the believer renews the mind (Rom 12:2), pursues godliness (Tit 2:11-12), and serves others in love (Gal 5:13). Failures and setbacks do not undo salvation, but God disciplines and restores His children, calling them back to fellowship with Him (1 John 1:9; Heb 12:6). Thus, the Christian faith begins with a decisive act of faith in Christ for salvation and continues with a lifelong walk of faith, obedience, and spiritual growth until the believer is perfected in the presence of the Lord (Phil 1:6; 1 John 3:2).
